Aled Jones was born on December 29, 1970, in Bangor, Gwynedd, Wales. Raised in Llandegfan on Anglesey, he was an only child who primarily spoke Welsh until he started school. His musical talent was evident early on; at age nine, he joined the Bangor Cathedral Choir and quickly became the lead soloist. In 1983, a local Welsh record company, Sain, offered him a deal, leading to his first album, ‘Diolch a Chan.’ He continued to release several albums, including ‘Ave Maria’ and ‘All Through the Night.’
Jones achieved international fame in 1985 with his cover of Raymond Briggs’ ‘Walking in the Air,’ which became a hit and a Christmas perennial, earning him an appearance on Top of the Pops. During this period, he performed for notable figures such as Pope John Paul II, Queen Elizabeth II, and Princess Diana. After his voice broke at 16, he pursued formal vocal training at the Royal Academy of Music and drama at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School. He subsequently took on theater roles, including Joseph in ‘Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat.’
His career saw a resurgence in 2000 when he joined the BBC as a presenter for ‘Songs of Praise,’ a role he continues today. This also marked the public debut of his adult baritone voice, leading to new albums like ‘Aled,’ ‘Higher,’ and ‘The Christmas Album.’ Beyond music, Jones has maintained a significant television presence, presenting shows such as ‘Cash in the Attic,’ ‘Escape to the Country,’ ‘Daybreak,’ and ‘Weekend.’ He was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2013 Birthday Honours for his contributions to music, broadcasting, and charity.
